The young and beautiful American Ketty Stevenson arrives in France with her husband who is there to complete a business deal. Intensely jealous and wary of the reputation of Frenchmen, he insists his wife disguise herself as an older and less attractive woman. When she encounters Robert, who her husband hopes to trick into selling some land in Colorado he has inherited with oil on it, she pretends to be her own niece. The two fall in love, while her husband has discovered the joys of French champagne and himself fallen for Ketty's maid Julia.
